P90X Results 90 Days With Photos

P90X Review Chest & Back (Day 57 - Phase 3)

Day 57 of my P90X journey, rounding the bend and heading for the home stretch. I can’t believe this fun and games will be finished in about a month. I’m looking at other people’s blogs to see what most people have done after they finish the 90 days to get an idea to build on the progress I’ve made so far. Right now I’m thinking of just doing P90X again with more modifications.

I took the day off today since the kids had spring break. That allowed me to sleep in a little bit and start my day at a leisurely pace. Chest and Back - wow, I’ve missed that big ol’ serving of German Potato Soup. I love the fact that you record your results during the P90X workouts. I was surprised at how much better I was doing on all the exercises in this video today. What a difference 56 days make. I love doing push-ups now.

I hit the P90X Ab Ripper X portion when the kids were eating breakfast so they were entertained watching their father grimace in pain and fall in a sweaty heap after Mason Twists. Good times!

P90X Review Core Synergistics (Day 54 - Phase 2)

Core synergistics is one of those P90X workouts that start out slow and fairly easy and work into a heart pounding, muscle pumping exercise routine.  I’m at the end of my recovery week and although I miss not pumping iron like the other workouts, these unique combinations still provide a challenge.  One of the benefits I experienced rather quickly after I started P90X was an increase in energy level.  I’m not sure if it was this or because I only had X Stretch yesterday, but last night I was going a little stir crazy.  I just felt like I needed to do an extra P90X routine to expend the energy.  I even had trouble winding down to go to sleep.  I don’t think I’ll have that problem tonight, you really get a workout with Core Synergistics.

One of my favorite move is Banana Roll, it’s a nice warm-up for what’s in store for you during these core exercises.

Did my weigh in last Tuesday after Biggest Loser and I finally broke out of a month long plateau of zero weight loss.  I know we aren’t supposed to focus on what the scale shows, I haven’t had any other detectable changes.  I just kept pushing play, tracking my calories and tried something that Tom Venuto suggested in his book, “Burn the Fat - Feed the Muscle“.  I increased my caloric intake for one day to a level slightly above what is suggested by the P90X Nutritional Guide.  I still ate clean, just increased the calories to send a signal to body that I wasn’t starving.  After I did that, I finally dropped 1.5 pounds.  I’m trying to maintain a gradual weight loss of one to two pounds a week.

I Scooped People Magazine!

Carl Daikeler posted on his blog that…”there was a rumor that a “Twitter tweet” surfaced that Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore were asking questions about this P90X thing they keep seeing on TV.”  Well that Twitter tweet was all laid out on my blog on February 28th.  Carl continues, “It looks like the rumors were true. Look what just got posted by People Magazine…”.

In an online feature published on March 19th titled, The Fit 5: Tips to Feel (and Look) Like a Star! People magazine mentions that Ashton and Demi were tweeting about their fitness woes.  People Magazine writers referenced the same tweet I mentioned in my blog post about celebrities who use P90X.  Just remember folks, you read it here first.
